Lipka’s X profile lists him as “on weekends: drag queen” and his social media accounts are full of videos and photos of him and others in “drag.”
In April 2023, Lipka posted a video of himself, while an intern for U.S. Rep. Garcia, doing a dance wearing women’s underwear:
One X user reacted to Lipka’s cross-dressing dance video by giving kudos to U.S. Rep Garcia’s, who People magazine called “Congress’ first gay immigrant,” office environment:
In September 2023, Lipka posted more videos of him cross-dressing and dancing, writing:
To celebrate it being Friday, some drag content to bless your feed (but fr I had really ate that uppp).
X is not allowing embedding of these videos, saying that the post has now been made private. Here is a screenshot:
Lipka’s Facebook profile says he’s also referred to as “Erotica the Drag Queen” with a cover photo picturing Lipka with six fellow cross-dressers:
On April 25 of this year, Lipka was tagged on Facebook by fellow cross-dresser “Nubia Love-Jackson” in a post promoting the “Unity Alliance Lavender Ball” at Hampden Sydney College, a private Virginia all-men’s school.
Lipka was also tagged by “Love-Jackson” in an October 2022 Facebook post in which a photo of the two cross-dressers had the caption, “The girls that drag together, (eggplant emoji) bottoms down together.”
Lipka’s Instagram account has now been set to “private” and lists him as “another gay in comms” and a “drag queen.”
The Biden-Harris campaign is aware of Lipka’s public cross-dressing and social media posts, with their PA Communications Director Jack Doyle telling Fox News that, “We’re proud to have a team of 200 talented Pennsylvania staffers, including Eric.”
Libs of Tik Tok posted what it says is a December 2021 X post by Lipka in which the cross-dresser said:
